“Comfortable”:
“Known for her soulful sound, she emulates the styles of our current favorite artists but, unlike them, avoids too much production on her songs to make her voice shine on each and every track.” – Viva Glam Magazine
New York, NY | July 1, 2014 – Emily Katter is an upbeat, curly haired, pop singer-songwriter hailing from the iconic streets of Manhattan. Her soulful sound has earned her comparisons to Alicia Keys, Natasha Bedingfield, and Robyn, and caught the attention of Fieldhouse Music Publishing (BMG Chrysalis), where she’s currently signed. Today Emily has partnered up with WorldLifestyle.com to unveil her new single, “Comfortable”, a powerful ballad that explores the emotions of being in a long-term relationship and keeping the flame from burning out. The song was co-written by fellow NYC-based singer-songwriter, Hadar Orshalimy, and co- produced by Dan “Robopop” Omelio, (Maroon 5, Gym Class Heroes, Lana Del Rey) and Eli Menezes(Lauren Hill, Trey Songz, Estelle). Alongside the exclusive single premiere she also provided World Lifestyle with a poignant editorial piece on how to keep the spark alive in love. Check it all out here:http://bit.ly/1o46qZc
“‘Comfortable’ is about being in a long-term relationship and getting to a point where you don’t really know if you are still “in love,” or if it is just being comfortable that keeps you together. It’s about trying to keep that spark alive when it’s covered up by familiarity. This song is important to me because I’ve been in this situation, as I know many people in long-term relationships have been at one point or another. I hope people will relate to the song and realize that we all go through similar experiences.” – Emily Katter
